Dino Match is a
memory-building Windows game for five to
nine-year-olds. As Derik the dinosaur you rescue books
from Rex the Tyrannosaurus by solving various
memory tasks. These include seeing a collection
of cards face up for two seconds. These cards are
then turned face down and it's your job to find
the matching pairs. This helps improve short-term
visual memory. If correct you then guide Derik
through a maze to earn worms and books along the
way. If incorrect Derik will eat the book.
Dino Match has
bright graphics and sound and requires 640Kb; a 386
or faster PC; Windows 3.1, 95 or OS/2; 4Mb of RAM
or higher; VGA or MCGA; a hard disk; and it also
supports soundcards. -- by Alan Hilvert-Bruce
